39. No, he did not. He had already reported war crimes and had been told to shut up about

it. It is laughable to say he would have kindly received in the current atmosphere had he attempted to use Whistle Blower protection. Show me ONE whistle blower over the past number of years who themselves have no ended up being prosecuted.

War criminals are a protected entity in this country at the moment.

Why did Ellsberg not do what you suggest, why did HE choose also, like Manning, to 'use a commercial entity' to tell the truth about Vietnam?

Ellsberg fully supports Manning, and I think I will accept his analysis of this case rather than those who still cling to the notion that Whistle Blowers are protected in this country especially when it comes to our Commercial, For Profit Wars.
